Jumping G. Horsefat! Bullwinkle Creator Dies


From AP:
Pioneering TV cartoon artist Alexander Anderson Jr., who created Rocky the flying squirrel and Bullwinkle the moose, has died after battling Alzheimer's disease . He was 90.
Anderson teamed up with his childhood friend and former University of California, Berkeley, fraternity brother Jay Ward to make low-budget TV cartoons.
Their creations also included Crusader Rabbit and his pal Rags the Tiger and Dudley Do-Right (below) of the Mounties.
